FRANK MCCLOSKEY #2


FRANK MCCLOSKEY0001, originally uploaded by bucklesw1.

1954 Route Book

"Ned sent a third picture of Mr. McCloskey with the following message:

Walter handled Program sales Ringling, don’t know what years."

Only picture I have seen of him as a working hand, unfortunately it is too small and since Shannon has moved 10 miles away I'll have to wait a few days to get it enlarged.

Frank and Walter Kernan started the Clyde Beatty Cole Bros Circus
and now Cole Bros Circus. This show would be nothing without the
initial matchup of these 2 fine gentlemen. They got Jerry Collins to invest and Randolph Calhoun and
are the true showmen to thank for this grand institution. No one gives these men their due. And the initial crew came from the Ringling show.
